Dragon Quest VII 3DS sells more than IV, V DS remakes
Posted on 12 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, DS, News | 0 comments
Dragon Quest VII sold a whopping 827,922 in its first week in Japan. That figure is tremendous, but one other remake has it beat: 2010’s Dragon Quest VI with 906,458 copies sold. Other recent Dragon Quest remake sales include IV with 597,301 units and V with 643,764 units.
It should be noted that Dragon Quest VI was released on the DS when the install base consisted of over 25 million users. Currently, the 3DS total stands at less than half that number in Japan.
